        <Explanation>PART I, LINE 3C: TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY FOR CHARITY CARE, AVERA QUEEN OF PEACE HOSPITAL HAS DEVELOPED A TEST WHICH UTILIZES A COMBINATION OF HOUSEHOLD INCOME, HOUSEHOLD ASSETS, AND ALSO CONSIDERS UNPAID PAST AND ONGOING MEDICAL EXPENSES.

        <Explanation>PART II: AVERA QUEEN OF PEACE SUPPORTS NUMEROUS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ORGANIZATIONS WITH PARTICIPATION AT MEETINGS AND DONATIONS THROUGHOUT ITS SERVICE AREA. ADDITIONALLY, AVERA QUEEN OF PEACE WORKS WITH DAKOTA WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY, THE MITCHELL TECHNICAL INSTITUTE, AND LOCAL HIGH SCHOOLS TO ADDRESS HEALTHCARE WORKER SHORTAGES IN THE COMMUNITIES OF ITS SERVICE AREA.</Explanation>
      </Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>PART III, LINE 4: BAD DEBT IS REPORTED AT CHARGES AS RECORDED BY THE ORGANIZATION. BAD DEBT EXPENSE IS REPORTED NET OF DISCOUNTS AND CONTRACTUAL ALLOWANCES. A PAYMENT ON AN ACCOUNT PREVIOUSLY WRITTEN OFF REDUCES BAD DEBT EXPENSE IN THE CURRENT YEAR. AVERA QUEEN OF PEACE DOES NOT BELIEVE THAT ANY PORTION OF BAD DEBT EXPENSE COULD REASONABLY BE ATTRIBUTED TO PATIENTS WHO MAY QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE SINCE EVALUATIONS ARE COMPLETED TO DETERMINE THOSE AMOUNTS DUE AND WILL BE RECLASSIFIED FROM BAD DEBT EXPENSE TO CHARITY CARE WITHIN 30 DAYS FOLLOWING THE EVALUATION OF THE AMOUNT.THE FOOTNOTE TO THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT DESCRIBES BAD DEBT EXPENSES IS LOCATED IN FOOTNOTE 1 ON PAGE 7 OF THE ATTACHED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.</Explanation>

      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>PART III, LINE 8: MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COSTS OF CARE ARE BASED ON THE MEDICARE COST REPORT. THE MEDICARE COST REPORT IS COMPLETED BASED ON THE RULES AND REGULATIONS SET FORTH BY CENTERS FOR MEDICARE AND MEDICAID SERVICES. AVERA QUEEN OF PEACE FOLLOWS THE CHA GUIDELINES IN REPORTING COMMUNITY BENEFITS AND THEREFORE ANY MEDICARE SHORTFALL (AS CALCULATED INCLUDING OUR NON-COST REPORT ENTITIES) IS EXCLUDED FROM OUR COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT. HOWEVER, MEDICARE IS THE ORGANIZATION'S LARGEST PAYER AND PATIENTS WITH MEDICARE COVERAGE ARE ACCEPTED REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT A SURPLUS OR DEFICIT IS REALIZED FROM PROVIDING THE SERVICES. THIS BASIS THEREFORE MEANS PROVIDING MEDICARE SERVICES PROMOTES ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE SERVICES WHICH IS A KEY ADVANTAGE FOR OUR COMMUNITY.</Explanation>

      <Form990ScheduleHPartVI>
        <Explanation>PART III, LINE 9B: IF THE PATIENT QUALIFIES FOR THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY FOR LOW-INCOME, UNINSURED PATIENTS AND IS COOPERATING WITH THE ORGANIZATION WITH REGARD TO EFFORTS TO SETTLE AN OUTSTANDING BILL WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME PERIOD, THE ORGANIZATION OR ITS AGENT SHALL NOT SEND, NOR INDICATE THAT IT WILL SEND, THE UNPAID BILL TO ANY OUTSIDE AGENCY IF DOING SO MAY NEGATIVELY IMPACT A PATIENT'S CREDIT. AT SUCH TIME AS THE ORGANIZATION SENDS THE UNCOLLECTED ACCOUNT TO AN OUTSIDE COLLECTION AGENCY, THE AMOUNT REFERRED TO THE AGENCY SHALL REFLECT THE REDUCED-PAYMENT LEVEL FOR WHICH THE PATIENT WAS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY FOR LOW-INCOME UNINSURED PATIENTS. ANY EXTENDED PAYMENT PLANS OFFERED BY A HOSPITAL IN SETTLING THE OUTSTANDING BILLS OF LOW INCOME, UNINSURED PATIENTS WHO QUALIFY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE SHALL BE INTEREST-FREE SO LONG AS THE REPAYMENT SCHEDULE IS MET.</Explanation>
